Book Description

Smart web developers will tell you that the sooner you detect
your code mistakes, the quicker you can fix them, and the less the
project will cost in the long run. Well, the most efficient way to
detect your mistakes in PHP is with PHPUnit, an open source
framework that automates unit testing by running a battery of tests
as you go. The benefits of PHPUnit are significant:

a reduction in the effort required to frequently test code

fewer overall defects

added confidence in your code

improved relations with your open source teammates

The only problem with this popular testing tool was its lack of
documentation-until now, that is. For this, O'Reilly went right to
the source, as Sebastian Bergmann, the author of PHPUnit Pocket
Guide, also happens to be PHPUnit's creator. This little book
brings together hard-to-remember information, syntax, and rules for
working with PHPUnit. It also delivers the insight and sage advice
that can only come from the technology's creator. Coverage of
testing under agile methodologies and Extreme Programming (XP) is
also included.

The latest in O'Reilly's series of handy Pocket Guides,
this quick-reference book puts all the answers are right at your
fingertips. It's an invaluable companion for anyone interested in
testing the PHP code they write for web applications.
